Attorney Information

Overview

I provide effective and aggressive representation for you and your loved ones. My reputation and history of successful litigation spans three decades, focusing on Subsequent Injury Trust Fund (SIBTF) and workers' compensation.

As an Orange County Workers' Compensation lawyer, I have worked on cases that involve catastrophic injuries as well as smaller injuries, and every case I take is of equal importance.

I am extremely knowledgeable about the laws pertaining to workers' compensation and my team works closely with my clients and we are fully committed to exceeding client expectations. We frequently reach settlements that are favorable to my clients before going to court.

With over 35 years of legal experience and a Harvard Law Degree, I am a dedicated, tenacious and creative attorney. I believe in pouring myself into everything I do and am committed to improving and maximizing my skills so that I can serve my clients to the best of my abilities.

Over the course of my career I have had the opportunity to perfect my skills inside and outside of the courtroom and truly enjoy both sides of practicing law. In my private practice I currently focus on representing injured individuals and their families in personal injury and worker’s compensation cases. I get great satisfaction from serving a diverse group of clients and regardless of the kind of case you are involved in, I promise to provide you with personalized, focused legal representation.

Outside of the office I am, first and foremost, a family man. I am a dedicated husband and father. I enjoy traveling and interacting with people who share my interests and values. I am intellectually curious, love books and am especially interested in foreign languages and the science of linguistics. In fact, I am fluent in Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Italian, English and Spanish.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

How long have you been in practice?
How many cases like mine have you handled?
How often do you settle cases out of court?
What are your fees and costs?
What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
